1965 - The Rolling Stones released one of the all-time most popular rock tunes, "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." The song was first played only on pirate radio stations as its lyrics were considered too sexually suggestive but it was later embraced by radio stations and the world. "Satisfaction" was added to the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress in 2006.
2015- Dave Grohl fell off the stage and broke his leg during a Foo Fighters show in Gothenburg, Sweden. He received medical attention but returned to finish the show, propped up while someone held his leg. The rest of Foo Fighters’ European tour was cancelled while Grohl underwent surgery, but the tour resumed on July 4 in Washington, D.C., with Grohl performing from a custom-made guitar throne. Grohl’s vision for the throne’s design came to him as he recovered from the operation to repair his leg.
